πεπληρώκατε
plēróō
you have filled
To make full, to fill up, or cause to abound; to complete something so that nothing is lacking. In extended senses: (1) to fill a container or space; (2) to complete a required time or task; (3) to fulfill or bring to realization (an obligation, requirement, word, or prophecy); (4) to bring to full measure or maturity (of character, knowledge, etc.); (5) to carry out or accomplish fully (assigned duties, command, or role). Thus, depending on context, πληρόω can mean to physically fill, to bring to a state of completeness, or to fulfill in the sense of carrying out what was previously planned or foretold.
